Date Night in Marrakesh

£9.00

The aromatic and subtle flavours of cooking from Marrakesh... 

More info

At night time the hustle and bustle of the medina (the old town of Marrakesh) turns into a magical setting in which to discover the colourful cuisine of Morocco. The flavours there are a fine balance of sweetness and fragrant spice to produce a refined cuisine that’s famous the world over. To begin this special date night we’ve got harira soup made from lentils and chickpeas, flavoured with herbs, spices and lemon and served with homemade flatbreads. Next, a vegetable tagine, grilled lamb chops and a fiery rose petal harissa. To finish, there’s a simple orange granita scented with cinnamon, cardamon and lemon verbena for a delicious, fragrant taste of Morocco’s favourite ingredients!
